520 |a For most of this century Americans have gravitated toward cities. During the 1970s, however, nonmetropolitan areas grew at the expense of many large industrial centers, especially those in the Northeast and Midwest. This "rural renaissance" resulted from a combination of forces, including a growing demand for retirement and recreation spots, the entry of baby boomers into the labor force, and the economic situation at home and abroad. This settlement pattern was reversed in the 1980s. The heavy immigration of Asians and Hispanics in the 1980s has increased the proportion of these groups, particularly in metropolitan areas of the South and West. Another present day trend is the movement of Blacks to the suburbs. This publication includes definitions, tables, maps, rankings, a list of suggested readings, and eight discussion points for classroom use. (DM)
